Time-Crunch Sprint: Random Group Generator (2 of 4 series) ~deployed

Random Group Generator   Website

Name: Elizabeth Trotter

Project Scope:

This was a Time-Crunch Sprint challenge where I built out a random group generator that allows you to enter names and generate random groups. This was a desktop build that utilized vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and the Bootstrap Framework.

  • This challenge was much tougher than yesterday's sprint as I feel that I misunderstood some of the client's requirements, but I had the opportunity to learn more about the Fisher–Yates Shuffle Algorithm.

Important

This project was part of a sprint challenge series that focused on functionality first, meeting the client's requirements, and supplying a working product prior to the time-crunched deadline. There is opportunity to improve the UI & UX design and responsiveness, if desired.

Client Requirements:

  • Be able to add names to a list
  • Allows to delete a specific name from the list
  • Allows user to be able to randomly generate the following
    • How many people per group or
    • How many groups you want to have.
    • This may contain an odd person out scenario. You must make sure there are no groups of one when that happens (Unless it was intentional by the user).
  • Make sure it is designed
  • Use creating elements
  • Allow the ability to come back to the page and have the list from the last session there
  • Tested
  • Desktop Build for this application
